OIL VAPOBIZER AND BURNER.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented May 20, 1913.

Application filed February 17, 1912. Serial No. 678,210.

certain new and useful Improvements in tional view of our improvedburner, and

Fig. 2, is a section on the line 22 of Fig. 1.

Like numerals of reference indicate corresponding parts in the severalfigures of the drawings.

Numeral 1 indicates the generating chamber of our burner and 2 theburner proper. The chambers 1 and 2 are cast together in one casting,the chamber 1 being superposed above the burner 2. Chamber 1 is dividedby a partition 8, an opening 4: being left in the lower part of thepartition. Fuel is admitted to the chamber 1 by supply pipe 5, having asuitable valve 6 therein.

Vapor is taken from the chamber 1 to the burner 2 by pipes 7, said pipeshaving a small orifice 8 at their discharge ends. Opposite the orifices8 and slightly spaced therefrom, are pipes 9 screwed into the ends ofthe burner chamber 2. This construction admits of air being forced intothe burner by the vapor passing out of the orifice 8. The burner isdivided into two cylindrical chambers 11 by a partition 10. The burneris further provided with perforations 12, common to gas or oil burners.Air is further admitted to the chamber 11, by a pipe 13, leading to apocket 14:, having openings 15 communicating with the burner. The

amount of air let into the pipe 13 is controlled by a valve 16.

Our burner is operated by admitting liquid fuel into the generatingchamber 1, where it is vaporized by the heat from the burner 2, and thevapor or gas thus gener-.

ated is carried to the burner by the pipe means. Should other air beneeded to effect perfect combustion, it can be admitted and the amountregulated by the pipe 13 and the valve 16 respectively.

From the foregoing specification and the accompanying drawings, it willbe seen that we have produced a cheap and effective liquid fuel burner,and one that is easily operated.

Having thus described our invention, what we claim is:

1. A burner having a burner chamber provided with a perforated portion,a superposed fuel chamber offset from the burner chamber, fuel supplymeans for the fuel chamber, a partition extending partially across thefuel chamber, a partition in the burner chamber, said burner chamberprovided with an inlet at each end, pipe means leading from each end ofthe fuel chamber to the inlets and stopping short thereof, substantiallyas described.

2. A burner having a burner chamber provided with a perforated portion,a superposed fuel chamber offset from the burner chamber, fuel supplymeans for the fuel chamber, a partition extending partially across thefuel chamber, a partition in the burner chamber, pipe means at each endof the burner communicating with the fuel chamber and burner chamber, anair pocket having inlets to the burner chamber, one on 'each side of thepartition, and air intake ing between the pocket and chamber on each Intestimony whereof We affix our signaside of the partition of the burnerchamber, tures in presence of tWo Witnesses.

, a valved air intake pipe leading to the pocket, inlets on oppositesides of the burner 51 chamber and pipe means leading from the fuelchamber to each inlet and stopping Witnesses:

short of the same, substantially as and for W. WARNER,

the purposes set forth. a W. L. GREEN.
